Stephen Mould, Head of Sotheby's Wine, Europe, commented: "The sale yesterday was very strong across the board with the result comfortably exceeding the high estimate. 'A Superb Private Collection' led the sale and featured mature Bordeaux from a damp cellar. While the storage may have affected the labels, demand for these gems saw intense global bidding, particularly from the UK and Asia. The collection included some fabulous Burgundy with rare Rousseau rocketing several times over the high estimate. Parcels of vintage port from this section also saw spirited bidding together with younger vintages of Bordeaux available in depth. Other collections in the sale were eagerly sought after resulting in a superb result for our first auction in London this year. We are now looking forward to a Single Owner sale on 29 March."Specialist in Charge: Stephen Mould | Press Office Contact: Matthew Floris |
